--- Comment #5 from William Cohen <wcohen at redhat dot com> ---
I have done some addition investigation using diagnostic print statements to
runtime/linux/stp_tracepoint.c.  The tracepoint_table[0] is getting corrupted. 
The lower 4 bytes of that entry are being zeroed. 

The problem is linked to the:

 set_kernel_string(addr, "foobar")

The interesting thing is that the set_kernel_string_n() functions later in the
test do not have an issue, but they use the same underlying code.  If the len
passed in is set to a value greater than 508 then the set_kernel_string_n()
will cause a similar corruption.  So it appears that issue is happening
_stp_store_deref_string.
